Not only is it a great place to work, but there are many other benefits to being an employee of Age UK Notts:

Flexible working

Our flexible working options give you more time to do the things you really want to do. We have a range of flexible working options and contracts for both full and part time staff including job share, working form home, and term time working.

All applicable staff (there are some exemptions) are entered on to our flexible working hours scheme that enables staff to start anytime between 8am and 10am and finish any time between 4pm and 6pm. You can also build up hours to use when you choose (rules apply!).

Child care voucher scheme

We run our own child care voucher scheme which is a salary sacrifice scheme. This means that you can pay for your child care to a maximum amount (ask the HR department for the current amount) from your gross wage. You are then taxed only from your gross wage after you have paid for your child care voucher meaning you save money. You pay your child care from your wages and your nursery or other accredited day are provider invoice Age UK Nottingham & Nottinghamshire.

Please note: Due to legislation changes, no new entrants to the scheme will be accepted after April 2018’.

Holidays

All staff start with 24 days annual leave per year (pro rata for flexible working options), rising one day per year with each year of service to a maximum of 32 days. Staff also receive eight public holidays per year.

Pension

The Charity will contribute 4% of basic salary into our NEST pension scheme after 3 months service with a phased employee minimum contribution rising to a maximum of 4% from 1st April 2019 (in line with auto-enrolment rules). However employees may contribute more than the minimum required employee contribution.
